About this property

Live like a local. Heated Pool, steps to the Beach. BTR# 1644

Enjoy a unique private property located on the barrier island beach community termed by USA Today article as "The Best Beach Town of All - Indian Rocks Beach".
Who says you can't have your cake and eat it too? At the Kennedy Kayak and Corn Hole Club you can. The beautiful white sand beaches and extensive recreational opportunities are at your front door and the peace
and quiet of a private residence are at your back door. Imagine by day playing on the beach then returning to a tropical garden and sitting around a fire surrounded by nature at night with ample space to savor just being out of doors. . . Pretty Ideal.
This spectacular, designer decorated unit is fully furnished and ready to please even the most discriminating of travelers. It includes two bedrooms, one bath, living room, dinning room, and a fully equipped kitchen with a 300 square foot private covered deck. One security camera located on 3rd floor deck facing stairs. Another security camera overlooking the pool. This newly renovated 840 square foot unit has top of the line finishes, furnishings and granite though out. Plus a great communal pool to use!
You are vacationing in a residential area. Please be a good neighbor by keeping the noise to a respectful level during the day and night. Excessive and unreasonable noise can deprive neighbors of peaceful enjoyment of their private property.

Great location and amenities

We really liked the neighborhood, far enough away from the beach traffic, and close enough to walk to the beach whenever we wanted. Our unit was very nice, shared pool was great, access to beach items was awesome. Would rent again.

We had a wonderful stay! The VRBO was clean and well furnished with lots of extra toiletries and towels. The kitchen had a wide variety of cookware, and we especially loved the private 20x20 covered porch. Perfect for laughing and sharing stories. Loved the quiet neighborhood. Beach chairs, wagons and noodles were provided and It was a 2 block walk to a beautiful beach. Could not have been nicer! And Larry was very responsive to meet any concerns we had. Would definitely love to come again.

Lovely stay

We enjoyed this property. We felt it was fairly priced. This property had all the things. We needed nothing for the beach it was all there! The bicycles were great and we did ride them a few times. Inside had everything you needed for the trip. We would stay here again. Thank you, Larry! We loved the outside areas!

Vacation

This property is exactly as advertised. Just minutes walk to the beach. Walking distance to shopping and dining as well. The neighborhood is quiet and the condo is absolutely adorable. The pool is kept up so well. We were lucky enough to be there when the owner was there and he was so much fun. I honestly can’t say enough good about this place. We absolutely loved it. We’re thinking this will probably be our next years vacation destination.

Great Place

We took a family vacation of 13 people to our daughter and son-in-laws condo, located 3 blocks from this place. My wife and I stayed here and it was a great experience. The property was amazing and perfect for what we needed. A short 3 block from the beach in a quiet neighborhood. We highly recommend this place.
